“I thank my colleague from Florida and appreciate his work on this issue. We have had a bipartisan effort. I was pleased Chairman Boxer, at the Environment and Public Works Committee, of which I am a member, joined with us in moving the legislation forward. I think it is time for us to do that now while we have an opportunity to make a decision that is fair to all parties. I believe this legislation is a thoughtful way to do it that would make the gulf a more healthy place. I thank the Senator for his leadership. ____________________”
